Chris Crass

A message from Chris

Hello, my name is Chris Crass and my work is dedicated to building powerful working class-based, feminist, multiracial movements for collective liberation. Throughout history every day people have come together to take on the most pressing challenges of their time and through collective organizing and struggle they have envisioned a better world, made large scale changes, won crucial victories, and passed on lessons to the next generation. Around the world and here in the United States, we see people's movements doing the same thing today. I believe in our ability to learn from the past, organize for tomorrow, and practice our visions and values today. I believe in our ability to work for systemic change, while simultaneously building beloved community and supporting one another's personal transformation in the process. I believe in collective liberation and I believe in our ability to win. I believe a better world is possible for all of our kids and that we must come together and build justice work to make it so.

I give talks and lead workshops with organizations, schools, congregations and communities around the country. My talks and workshops focus on themes of anti-racism, social justice organizing, feminism for men, creating healthy activist culture, and spiritually grounded leadership for liberation.

You can find out how to bring me to work with your community, school, congregation or organization, as well as information on my writing, including my latest book Towards the "Other America": Anti-Racist Resources for White People Taking Action for Black Lives Matter and my other book, Towards Collective Liberation: anti-racist organizing, feminist praxis and movement building strategy.

Let us be rooted in our vision, act with love, and be powerful in our work for collective liberation.
